Xiaoqian's residence is actually not too far from the dark night bar, which is ten minutes by taxi, but it is in two directions with the rental apartment where Gao Qian lives.

At this moment, the night is very deep, the gate of the community has been closed, only the small door for the owners to enter and exit, but taxis are not allowed to drive into the community.

"Can you go in by yourself?" After parking, Gao Qian also got out of the car, and while gentlemanly pulling the car door for Xiao Qian, he glanced at the direction where the taxi came without moving.

"Yes, thank you for your high dive, thanks to your ...... today" Xiao Qian said with a sincere look of thanks as she got out of the car.

"Okay, I'll send you in. Gao Qian interrupted Gui Xiaoqian.

Xiao Qian was slightly flustered, she watched Gao Qian turn around and pay for the car, and whispered to the driver to leave by himself if he didn't come out after ten minutes. She wondered if Gao Qian had misheard? She clearly said that she didn't need him to continue to send it. But she chose to remain silent. After all, the high potential to accompany her through this dark community is what she can't ask for. Tonight was a little too heavy for her.

Then she heard the taxi driver smile in a passer-over tone: "Okay, buddy, I'll wait for you for ten minutes, but I wish you good luck and don't need me to pick you up." ”

She lowered her head in some panic and pretended not to hear anything, except that in the light of the streetlights, her ears were red.

Gao Qian smiled stiffly at the taxi driver, and he sincerely hoped that Xiao Qian behind him would be temporarily deaf immediately.

Then he turned around and looked at the three rows of small high-rise buildings that stood in the dark of the night: "Let's go." With that, Bento walked into the community first.

Xiao Qian silently followed, but for some reason, she lowered her head and looked a little sluggish.

The high diver walked and looked at his surroundings.

The greenery of the community is quite good, full of shrubs and landscape trees, but in this dimly lit night, these tree shadows are like lurking monsters waiting for an opportunity.

High Diver tries to get rid of all the "noises" that are infused into the senses. For him, who had just discovered that he had five senses, it was not easy.

On the left is a row of dark green holly shrubs mixed with a few slightly obtrusive palm trees. He saw that the disconnected landscape light cable in the grass under the tree had been chewed by rats and turned out, revealing the copper core inside. At seven o'clock, the night owl adjusted its angle in the wind and swooped downward, its claws piercing into the flesh of its prey, making a soft sound of cracking bones. He smelled all sorts of smells, human, architectural, and plant, and these smells were mixed together, and they smelled no better than the stench in the gutter.

But none of that mattered, he just had to try to filter them and catch what really mattered, as he kept trying in the taxi.

Gao Qian suddenly stopped and turned back.

Xiao Qian stared at him with straight eyes: "Gao Qian, I, I seem to see a woman in white." ”

"Where?" Gao Qian approached Xiao Qian and looked in the direction of her finger. The dark green holly bushes resembled a row of low walls, where there might be night owls and rats, and a bunch of freshly hatched bugs and scavenging creatures underneath, but there were no women in white.

"You're dazzled. Gao Qian turned sideways to block Xiao Qian's hesitant vision, "Which building is your house?" ”

"Oh......" Xiao Qian hesitated, "but I really ......"

"Maybe it's the residents who come out in the middle of the night to walk their dogs. Gao Qian was a little impatient, there was indeed something that made him uneasy, but he was not a female ghost, "I said, do you often watch supernatural movies?"

"No, I'm too timid, and those things on the movie are fake. It seemed that talking could make Xiaoqian relax, and she began to chatter, "Once I accidentally changed the channel to a supernatural documentary program, it couldn't be fake, I saw the female ghost hanging in white......"

There are no female ghosts, but there is indeed something. Gao Qian followed Xiao Qian, who was talking, trying to distinguish in the air. When the five senses are fully opened, it is as if he is in the middle of a busy city, where the noise, the smell, the light and the shadow are noisy, and he must learn to ignore them, peel back layer by layer, and grasp something that he really cares about.

He seemed to have caught something, but it was vague.

"High diving, high diving?"

"What did you say?" Gao Qian drew his attention back to Xiao Qian.

Xiao Qian looked at him carefully with her face up: "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing. Gao Qian rubbed the corners of his forehead with his hand, "A little headache, have you arrived at home?"

"Well, this is it. Xiao Qian pointed to a slender red brick tower in front of her. It was a twelve-story building, half-new, with a somewhat peculiar shape, like a cascading game of drawing wooden blocks, while the other buildings around it were much more formal.

"Looks pretty good. "High submersible evaluation against will.

Xiao Qian laughed: "Don't tease, I know what you're thinking." At that time, this was the cheapest building in this area, and it seemed to be an entry for some kind of building award, but of course it didn't win the prize. Although it is ugly, it is fortunately clean, there are only two households on the first floor, and I usually don't see anyone, and I don't know if they were all bought by the real estate speculation group. ”

"It doesn't seem like there's anybody. Gao Qian looked at the black windows of the building. In this metropolis, even in the middle of the night, it is rare to see buildings with lights turned off and fires, and even compared to the other buildings in the vicinity with flickering lights, this one is obviously too quiet.

"You live alone?" Gao Qian looked down at Gui Xiaoqian.

"Well, I used to have a roommate, and then she moved out. Xiao Qian lowered her head and wiped the black mud on the floor tiles with the soles of her shoes, "Actually, well, I'm a very conservative person, and I've never invited boys to my house, but...... Do you want that...... I mean, do you want to ......" Xiao Qian said this sentence to the expectation of Ai Ai, her tongue was knotted, and she herself didn't understand why it became so difficult to invite Gao Qian to sit down, obviously she was not an introvert.

She quietly looked up and found that Gao Qian was looking at her expressionlessly, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking on his handsome face. Xiaoqian felt as if she had a walnut in her mouth, and she couldn't even speak: "For example, if you hurry, you ...... in a hurry."

suddenly

"Be careful!"

Xiao Qian suddenly felt that she was pulled hard and threw herself on Gao Qian's body, her ankle twisted, and there was a piercing pain, she had to climb Gao Qian's shoulders with both hands, hanging there: "What is it?" She felt Gao Qian's body stiffen, and her jaw tightened, he grabbed her elbow vigorously, coldly scanned the surroundings, and finally turned his gaze to the darkness around the corner of the building.

She looked wide, but saw nothing.
